I live in Alaska ,
I took my first round of clomid 100 mg a day days 3-7 this month. I will retry next month due to DH having to leave town (as he works remote here in Alaska and is only home every other week.) I had some pretty severe headaches after the third clomid pill. They seemed to only last a little while though and went away all together after the last one. Hopeing to be pregnant soon and it would be nice I have to admit to be blessed with twins or more. However I will be very happy with what God gives me out of this.
I hope that best for all of you .
Lots and Lots of Baby Blessings to you all ↑

California here. Here are my stats
Prescribed clomid (due to irregular periods) all though I have to say that they werent all that irregular off by a few days here and there. / 150 mg once daily
Days / 1-5
BD / every other week starting on the 11cd
23.5 weekspregnant with triplets and doing GREAT!!!
i would never tell you to get clomid without a doctor knowing as there can be some serious results in doing so, but if you do just make sure you let someone know other then yourself . ↑

I am really glad that so far there is no fighting as of yet on here. I think that is great. I am from Texas and very much in love with my DH and ready to have a baby or babies with him. I am taking U/P clomid at 100 mg a day . I will take my last pill on Tuesday and then start bdding on this Friday and every day after that until I get pg or start my next period whatever comes first. This is so exciting for me . I know personally of at least 20 other women who are taking it both prescribed and U/P and you know what they are all doing just fine. Most of the people that I know on it are aware of what could happen and will go the nearest doc about any problems or issues that may arise for them. I know that one of my friends due to insurance purposes wont tell her doc of the clomid , but will tell him that she has been taking fertility altering herbals if something goes wrong.This is not far off as she has taken those as well in the past. ↑

Hi I took day 50mg 2-6 at night though to combat side effects I am also taking Robitussin to ehlp with CM, baby aspirin (to hlpe uterine lining) Vit B6 (porogesterone production) and I am temping, No side effects felt a little woozy after pills 4 and 5 and other than that absolutely nothing. I am BD every other day until AF (just to be sure) and I live in Canada ↑
Name: baby dreams | Date: Dec 5th, 2005 7:53 PM
Alberta, Canada
50 mg u/p clomid a day
PG with b/g twins 22 weeks
Used Pre-Seed
bd every other day on cd 13-20
s/e headaches and a little dizzyness
I say if you are aware of what you are doing and willing to go to the doctor when needed , then why not try for the baby dreams that you have always wanted. I wanted and hoped for twins and now I am having them . ↑
Name: catherine | Date: Dec 5th, 2005 8:28 PM
I will start u/p clomid for the first time soon. I am going to start with 50mg. It has been two years trying to get pregnant. I have a child that was natural.
I also, will go to the nearest dr at the first sign of trouble.
I'm in Ca.
Oh, and by the way, I LOVE the fact that there is no fighting in here.
Some of the boards were just repulsive. ↑

Name: Happy | Date: Dec 5th, 2005 10:25 PM
I am so happy there is a forum that isnt rude or abusive . Thank you. I have been taking 100 mg. of clomid cd 1-6 and it is U/P . I am letting my doc know that I have used herbal fertility helpers though so that my insurance will still pick it up. I saw this was suggested above or mentioned at the very least. It is a good idea to inform your doc ..so I would say take a round of the hearbal so that you arent lieing to him about it at least .
I live in Albuquerque New Mexico. I will start bding on Tuesday. Baby Dust to you all. ↑

Name: mandy | Date: Dec 6th, 2005 2:02 PM
I live in NYC, but I have a business in Wisconsin so I'm always back and forth. I am taking clomid, 100mg days 3-7 and waiting for results now. Not sure it worked though and this is my third round, so if AF comes next week I think I'll take days 1-5 after reading this thread. I REALLY want twins too (long story). I just had a question for the moms of twins and triplets using clomid...were the babies born premature and were they healthy as could be? That's the only thing I'm worried about so it would be good to hear from those who have been there. Thanks so much! ↑
Name: Melissa | Date: Dec 6th, 2005 2:10 PM
I have taken clomid (prescribed) to become pregnant. My first daughter, I concieved at 100 mg. days 5-9. She is now 2 yrs, 9 mo. We also have 11 week old twins that were concieved on 150 mg. of clomid days 5-9. We had a miscarriage right before we concieved the twins and were on the same doses. I also took metformin along with the clomid as well as robitusin. Good luck to all you trying. It will happen!!!! ↑
Name: Tara | Date: Dec 6th, 2005 2:13 PM
Hey there,
My twins were born on time for a twin birth as far as my doctor was concerned. They were both 5 pounds two and a half ounces and went home with me . I know that some people have premies , but with the technology that they have today, it doesnt seem to be as much of an issue as it used to be . I do understand your concern though as I went through that as well. I hope you get the twins you always wanted. Baby dust to you . ↑
Name: to mandy | Date: Dec 6th, 2005 4:11 PM
Were my triplets born premature? YES. ALL triplets are born premature. Some more so than others. Human beings were not designed to carry litters. Are they healthy? Now, they are relatively healthy. One is very small (he was 1lb 9oz at birth), one has a crooked leg that he wears a brace on due to an infection he had in the NICU. Their lives were in constant peril from 8 wks gestation until they were about 10 weeks old. One of them nearly died when he developed a strangulated hernia at 9 weeks old. The hernia was a direct result of being premature. I post regularly on a triplet website and I've seen far worse outcomes. I feel amazingly blessed to have my 3 miracles. They are the joy of my life. But you can see why I am sickened by the women on this site that take u/p clomid and encourage others to do so. You just don't know how many babies you're going to get. I'm so glad that my fertility treatments were monitered by doctors. If I had gotten pregnant by u/p clomid I would have been so guilt-ridden. Take it from a mom who has held a 1 pound baby with an iv in his head in her arms: it's not worth it.

There is a woman in WA (I believe) who just gave birth in Sept. to quintuplets and she was on clomid. You can google it and you'll find the articles. Please everyone be careful. The last thing you want to have to think about is selective reduction. ↑

Thank you for keeping it real and clean. I am a U/P taker and though I will still make my own choice, I am very much appreciative for comments like yours that are clean, but firm . That makes a world of difference to people and allows them to keep open ears. I do think that weather or not the fertility drug was taken p or u/p the fact remains that as any mother we would feel guilty either way if anything ever happened to any of our little ones . That just comes with the nature of being a mom . Now with that being said, I also think that at least for myself I will be closely watched via doctor if I do get pregnant with multiples and I will also trust and hope that only good healthy babies will come from this journey.If anything should happen then that is a whole other journey I will have to take with them, but until I wont talk or think as if it has or will because I also believe that the power of mind and speach is a very strong thing . Again thank you for keeping it clean and I am glad that your little ones are doing better now. I am sorry that you had a rough time of it and I hope that only good things are to come for you and your bundles of joy. ↑
Name: mandy | Date: Dec 6th, 2005 5:17 PM
to yetanothertripletmom, just wanted to say thank you for sharing your experience and wish you luck and blessings with your little ones. I really appreciate everyone sharing on this post. If anyone else has a personal story with their twins or triplets I would also appreciate hearing it. I fully understand the risks involved, I will be supervised and as an egg donor I've been on meds many times stronger than this...resulting in about 20 mature eggs that hopefully made the difference in a stranger's life. Anywho, I just wanted to say thank you for everyone who shares their lives with strangers on these posts because it just makes it a lot easier to not go through this alone. And baby dust to those ttc!*** ↑

I just finished my first round of clomid- 50mg. Just got AF today. Bummer! Getting bumped up to clomid 100mg. I really hope this month is it for us. We really want twins.
Question- does bumping up to 100mg really make a difference??? ↑
